Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing cornered Li Qiu

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Two Little Fools.]

The Young Bibi Dong, followed suit with another stab, a smile playing on her lips; she was in a very good mood.

[Seven Treasure Little Princess: You two, mother and daughter, are infuriating! The two idiots from the Spirit Hall are adorably stupid... hehe...]

Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue at the screen. She Ning Rongrong about the Spirit Hall Saintess or Spirit Hall Young Master; she wasn't afraid and would confront them if necessary.

[The Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Two Idiots from the Spirit Hall...]

Zhu Zhuqing also wrote a concise and to-the-point response.

[Spirit Hall Saintess: You two wretched little brats... Don't let me run into you, or I'll spank your little bottoms...]

The Young Bibi Dong, blushed slightly with anger.

These Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing are really audacious, daring to call her, the Spirit Hall Saintess, "stupid"?

[Love-Starved Little Angel: You wait, if I find out which academy you're in, I'll definitely send my future self to spank you!]

Xiao Xue'er waved her little fist, looking very serious.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing cornered Li Qiu in a corner of the inn, standing on either side like two gatekeepers, neither willing to give way.

The two of them wanted Li Qiu to admit that he was the Group Owner, otherwise they wouldn't let him leave.

Zhu Zhuqing, with her full breasts, stood in front of Li Qiu. Her alluring figure was perfectly proportioned, with curves that were both prominent and subtle. Even through her thin clothes, one could see her shapely figure. Her waist was so slender that one could pinch it with one hand, while her breasts were excessively full. Paired with her aloof face, the contrast was so striking that it was impossible to look away.

Li Qiu, cornered like that, couldn't help but glance in that direction before looking away, speechless.

This girl is usually aloof and doesn't bother to say much, but when it comes to blocking someone, she's anything but hesitant. She even stands there with that imposing posture, clearly knowing he's too embarrassed to actually fight back.

"If you don't move aside, I'm going to get physical!"

Li Qiu looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a wicked smile, his gaze deliberately lingering on her chest.

The meaning in his eyes couldn't be clearer.

Zhu Zhuqing blushed slightly when he looked at her like that.

That blush spread from the base of her ears all the way down her neck, with a thin layer of pink tinging above her collarbone.

But she still gritted her teeth and refused to back down, her chin slightly raised, her deep blue eyes staring straight at him:

"Are you going to talk or not? I'm not leaving if you don't!"

"Then I'll pinch it!"

Looking at her ample bosom, Li Qiu spoke in a half-serious tone, deliberately raising his hand as if to stretch it forward.

I don't believe it!

Ning Rongrong stood to the side with her arms crossed, thinking that Li Qiu was just bluffing. Knowing him as she did, she figured he might be all talk and no action; he probably wouldn't have the guts to actually do it.

Even if you were incredibly brave, you wouldn't dare—

"Never mind, I'm all better now, right?"

Li Qiu interrupted her, raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, and her mischievous smile faded, replaced by a helpless expression that said, "I give up."

Zhu Zhuqing took two steps back to make way for him, but the redness on her face hadn't completely faded, and she didn't dare to look at his hands anymore. She just turned her head to the side, pretending to look at the painting on the wall.

That painting was actually painted crookedly; it was just a plucked pheasant. What was so interesting about it?

"You stinking Li Qiu, you hid it so well! You have to compensate me for my emotional distress!"

Ning Rongrong snorted, raising her chin high and putting her hands on her hips, looking just like a little creditor coming to collect a debt.

"I want one too!"

Zhu Zhuqing said earnestly, then added after thinking for a moment,

"How about I send you a Immortal Herb?"

She said this in a flat tone, but her earnest expression clearly showed that she genuinely felt that the Immortal Herb was more valuable than any compensation for emotional distress.

"That is!"

Ning Rongrong immediately followed suit, pursing her lips and acting coquettishly, her voice drawn out softly and long, with the last syllable rising in pitch, completely different from her usual arrogant demeanor.

"You two are dreaming! You're incredibly audacious! The immortal Immortal Herb is so precious; you can't just have it whenever you want!"

Li Qiu rolled her eyes at them, straightened her collar which Zhu Zhuqing had pulled askew, and then patted off non-existent dust from her cuffs.

"I want to exchange it for something else."

"Oh, what will you use to exchange it for? Tell me the truth."

Ning Rongrong tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly her eyes widened, she crossed her arms over her chest, and jumped back half a step.

"You're not trying to get me to use my body to get what I want, are you? Don't even dream about it! I'm completely innocent, I won't fall for your tricks!"

"Well..."

Zhu Zhuqing was taken aback by Ning Rongrong's directness, and her ears turned even redder.

However, she knew in her heart that the Immortal Herb was indeed too precious, and there were only a few in the entire Douluo Continent. Even if she were willing to exchange her body for it, Li Qiu might not be interested.

After all, there was another Young Bibi Dong, who also liked Li Qiu. She was the Spirit Hall Saintess, and she had everything: status, looks, and talent.

Although the two are separated by a plane and exist in different Space-Time, making it extremely difficult for them to be together, she is still a saintess, and that title alone is enough for her to think twice about.

Thinking about it this way, she felt a strange competitive spirit, realizing that she wasn't entirely without a chance. At least she and Li Qiu were in the same Space-Time, seeing each other every day.

[Seven Treasure Little Princess: Hehe, the Little Cat Who Loves Fish and I cornered Group Owner Li Qiu.]

[The Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Mm.]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: You guys are so bold, why are you blocking the Group Owner? You don't want him to give you the Immortal Herb, do you? The Group Owner definitely won't give it away for free, unless you use your bodies, maybe then he'll agree!]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: @Little Love-Starved Little Angel, little guy, what nonsense are you talking about? You're so young and you already know about this? Where did you learn that? Did the Group Owner something bad?]

[A Leaf Knows Autumn: @Spirit Hall Saintess, don't claim I taught everything.]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Exactly, the Group Owner wouldn't be that mean!]

[Seven Treasure Little Princess: Xiao Xue'er, stop it! You just said the Group Owner should exchange his body for the Immortal Herb, and now you're speaking up for him!]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: I was saying you guys used your bodies to get what you wanted, not that the Group Owner was bad. You yourselves have impure thoughts!]

[The Spirit Hall Saintess: Alright, alright, two little girls plus one little girl, this arguing will never end.]

[The Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Saintess, you're still a little girl, you're only fourteen.]

[The Spirit Hall Saintess:... So what if I'm fourteen? I'm more mature than all of you at fourteen.]

[A Leaf Knows Autumn: Alright, stop arguing. We'll talk about the Immortal Herb later. Go to sleep first; we have to go into the Star Dou Great Forest tomorrow.]

Just then, Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, and Zhao Wuji came down from upstairs.

Zhao Wuji walked at the front, his footsteps making the wooden stairs creak, his burly figure completely blocking the entrance to the stairs.

He immediately spotted Li Qiu cornered by Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, his brows furrowing as he shouted in a gruff voice:

"What are you all doing? Aren't you going to rest? We're leaving at eight tomorrow, and instead of sleeping, you're blocking people here. What kind of behavior is this!"

He paused, his gaze sweeping from Ning Rongrong to Zhu Zhuqing, and then added:

"Do you want to be punished? Tomorrow we're going into the Star Dou Great Forest. If anyone's not in good spirits and drags us down, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
